Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Amber lyon has been reverted. Your edit here to Amber lyon was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (http://www.Facebook.com/AmberLyonfans) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 20:17, 10 October 2012 (UTC)

Amber Lyon
Hi Elizabeth! Welcome to Wikipedia! The Amber Lyon article is currently undergoing a major edit to cleanup and address issues that are not in accordance with the encyclopedia's policies and guidelines. I wanted to touch bases on the article and offer some links that will explain some of the changes being made to bring this article into compliance. I think this covers some basic information that applies directly to content that is being addressed in the Amber Lyon article. If you have questions, please feel free to contact me. I am more than happy to help and offer any clarification requested. Cindy ( talk to me ) 06:40, 2 November 2012 (UTC)
 * While Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, it is vital that we maintain a neutral point of view in articles.
 * WP:COATRACK explains some thoughts regarding the addition of negative and biased content, criticism, or any content that may be considered libelous or defamatory... regardless of whether or not the content is determined to be true to not.
 * WP:BLP explains the policy pertaining to writing biographies of living persons.
 * It is the responsibility of all contributors to ensure that material posted on Wikipedia is not defamatory.

Please do not add or change content without verifying it by citing reliable sources, as you did to Amber Lyon. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. ''The improperly sourced content has been removed from the Amber Lyon article. Sources you have provided do not verify content added. For example, the claim in the article about receiving three Emmy Awards is not verified by the citation. Additionally, as stated above, I have removed the defamatory POV content and tone about CNN. We cannot use terms such as "expose" or "whistleblower", since these terms reflect a libelous, defamatory opinion not supported by facts. We also cannot state that individuals were using tear gas as a "weapon", rather than as a crowd-control device. While the subject may hold her opinion as truth, we cannot replicate this position in the encyclopedia. Wikipedia is not a soapbox from which to advocate, present propaganda, or promote or publicize a particular political cause or point of view. You simply cannot do this here. All information must be presented with a neutral point of view.'' Cindy  ( talk to me ) 18:09, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Amber Lyon. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. ''Again, the improperly sourced content has been removed from the Amber Lyon article. Sources you have provided do not verify content added. For example, the claim in the article about receiving three Emmy Awards is not verified by the citation. Additionally, as stated above, I have removed the defamatory POV content and tone about CNN.

Your recent editing history at Amber Lyon shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

This is your last warning. The next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Amber Lyon, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Cindy ( talk to me ) 20:29, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed your recent edit to edit summary. Please provide one before saving your changes to an article, as the summaries are quite helpful to people browsing an article's history. An example (there are more than one) of such an edit is:

AN/I Notification
Hello. There is currently a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. This notice is required due to your name being mentioned in an incident report regarding the Amber Lyon article. Best regards, Cindy  ( talk to me ) 16:23, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 31 Hours for edit warring, as you did at Amber Lyon. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Spartaz Humbug! 18:11, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

Recent edit to Amber Lyon
Hello, and thank you for your recent contribution. I appreciate the effort you made for our project, but I have reverted your update to the way it was before your edit. While your update may be, in fact, true, it was inserted without any reference supporting the claim you've made. I recognize that you made the change in good faith, so if you can provide support for your update, please make the change again and insert the correct references. Feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions. Thank you! Vertium '' When all is said and done 01:59, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
